Attorney Harold Brady disbarred, ordered to pay $110m

KINGSTON, Jamaica — Noted attorney and senior member of the Jamaica Labour Party (JLP) Harold Brady was today disbarred from practising as a lawyer in Jamaica.

The decision was taken by the disciplinary committee of the General Legal Council (GLC). 

He has been struck from the list of licensed legal practitioners in Jamaica.

Brady was disbarred after he was found guilty of professional misconduct last week in relation to allegations that he misappropriated funds belonging to his client, the Factories Corporation of Jamaica.

OBSERVER ONLINE sources say Brady was ordered to pay restitution to the complainants in a sum exceeding J$110 million. 

The commitee is expected to publish a full report on Brady’s disbarrment next week.
